Coverings of the Heart: Anatomy
Pericardium – a double-walled sac around the heart composed of:
1. A superficial fibrous pericardium
2. A deep two-layer serous pericardium
a. The parietal layer lines the internal surface of the fibrous pericardium
b. The visceral layer or epicardium lines the surface of the heart
They are separated by the fluid-filled pericardial cavity

Atria of the Heart
Atria are the receiving chambers of the heart
Each atrium has a protruding auricle
Blood enters right atria from superior and inferior
venae cavae and coronary sinus
Blood enters left atria from pulmonary veins
16
![Page 17: The Cardiovascular System: The HeartThe Cardiovascular System: The Heart Anatomy 1 .

Ventricles of the Heart
Ventricles are the discharging chambers of the heart
Papillary muscles and trabeculae carneae muscles
mark ventricular walls
Right ventricle pumps blood into the pulmonary
trunk
Left ventricle pumps blood into the aorta
17

Myocardial Thickness and Function
Thickness of myocardium varies according to the function of the chamber
Atria are thin walled, deliver blood to adjacent ventricles
Ventricle walls are much thicker and stronger
right ventricle supplies blood to the lungs (little flow resistance)
left ventricle wall is the thickest to supply systemic circulation

Thickness of Cardiac Walls

Myocardium of left ventricle is much thicker than the right.

Coronary Circulation
Coronary circulation is the functional blood supply
to the heart muscle itself
Collateral routes ensure blood delivery to heart
even if major vessels are occluded

Heart Valves
Heart valves ensure unidirectional blood flow
through the heart
Atrioventricular (AV) valves lie between the atria
and the ventricles
AV valves prevent backflow into the atria when
ventricles contract
Chordae tendineae anchor AV valves to papillary
muscles
25

Heart Valves
Semilunar valves prevent backflow of blood into the
ventricles
Aortic semilunar valve lies between the left
ventricle and the aorta
Pulmonary semilunar valve lies between the right
ventricle and pulmonary trunk

Cardiac Muscle Contraction
Heart muscle:
Is stimulated by nerves and is self-excitable
(automaticity)
Contracts as a unit
Cardiac muscle contraction is similar to skeletal
muscle contraction

Heart Sounds
Heart sounds (lub-dup) are associated with closing
of heart valves
First sound occurs as AV valves close and signifies
beginning of systole (contraction)
Second sound occurs when SL valves close at the
beginning of ventricular diastole (relaxation)
33

Cardiac Cycle
Cardiac cycle refers to all events associated with
blood flow through the heart
Systole – contraction of heart muscle
Diastole – relaxation of heart muscle

Congestive Heart Failure
Causes of CHF
coronary artery disease, hypertension, MI, valve disorders,
congenital defects
Left side heart failure
less effective pump so more blood remains in ventricle
heart is overstretched & even more blood remains
blood backs up into lungs as pulmonary edema
suffocation & lack of oxygen to the tissues
Right side failure
fluid builds up in tissues as peripheral edema 36

Clinical Problems MI = myocardial infarction
death of area of heart muscle from lack of O2
replaced with scar tissue
results depend on size & location of damage
Blood clot
use clot dissolving drugs streptokinase or t-PA & heparin
balloon angioplasty
Angina pectoris
heart pain from ischemia (lack of blood flow and oxygen )
of cardiac muscle 37
